| As a group, the Hybrid Coral Bells offer the gardener a tremendous new range of foliage colours, especially for part-shade areas. This British selection forms a low mound of dark green and purple mottled leaves, bearing upright stems with a mist of coral-pink flowers in early summer. Attractive to hummingbirds. Excellent in pots and containers, as well as for edging in the border. In hot summer areas this prefers partial shade to retain the foliage colour. May be divided in early spring.
